My son is a light Summer, but I am having a hard time finding the right blue for him--especially to match his eyes. He is blond with blue eyes, and the aqua colors you recommend clash with his eyes. I am a spring and always thought that summers wore pastel colors. Isn't there a pastel blue that a light summer could wear? Also, can you post a picture of the medium blue that you list as a light summer neutral? Thank you!
